Prayer Requests and Praises

Philippians 4:6-7

“Be not anxious for nothing, but in prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God, and the peace of God which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.”

PRAISES

Despite the challenges, we face every day, God has been good to us and kept us safe and sound thus far. We are grateful to be able to worship together as a church family while taking precautions such as wearing masks, avoiding hugs and hand shaking for now.

Praise the Lord for the message by Elder Said Leon who preached about the negative and positive effects of "Unity". The message is available on church website as well as on church Facebook

Praise the Lord for each of His mercies and His goodness endures forever.

Keith shares the blessings his family had and will experience in the month of December: Elisha and Kaleah’s birthdays and his parents and Tameka & his anniversaries.

Gabriela is thankful that the church family responded by giving 100+ Christmas cards to be given to residents of Pruitt Health Facility.

Ann praises God that her cousin Dorothy and family have recovered from a mild version of the COVID. They are going to self-quarantine for an additional 5 days.

Please take time from your busy schedule to mention these prayer requests during your personal prayer time. Use the bulletin insert given earlier to write the names of people you are praying for and place the list in your Bible. This will give you the opportunity to pray for these names every

time you open your Bible or during your devotional time. Be sure to thank God for answering prayers.

May God continue to bless you!

Please feel free to let Pastor Jeff, Elder Said Leon, Gabriela, or Ann know of your prayer

requests.

Merry Christmas as we celebrate Christ’s First Advent to save

us from sin and to give us a new life in Him.
